Irises Rewritten sees Mr Brainwash reinterpret one of Vincent van Gogh’s most celebrated floral subjects through his distinctive contemporary Pop and street-art aesthetic.
Taking inspiration from Van Gogh’s iconic Irises, Mr Brainwash transforms the familiar composition with vivid colour, energetic mark-making and his signature layers of graffiti-inspired imagery. The historic influence of the original is deliberately contrasted with the artist’s modern visual language, creating a work that feels simultaneously familiar and entirely contemporary.
The piece reflects Mr Brainwash’s characteristic approach of bringing together art history and popular culture, taking an instantly recognisable image and rewriting it through a lens of colour, optimism and irreverence.
Produced as a silkscreen paper edition, Irises Rewritten is limited to just 95 examples and hand signed by Mr Brainwash. A striking statement work, it celebrates the enduring influence of Van Gogh while showcasing the bold energy that has made Mr Brainwash one of contemporary Pop art’s most recognisable figures.
